It is now perfectly apparent that there is no hopo that this congress will pass n 5430,000 appropriation iu aay form whatever for a portico railway at The Dalles. No one questions the good fulth of Gov ernor Peunoyer In asking congress to give that sum to open the Colum bia, or in seriously ex pec tint; to ob- talu hearing for his request. But the Indications from Washington point unmistakably to the conclu sion that the combination of circum stances is such that it Is folly for the governor to any longer he under the delusion that he has anything to expect from this congress. Hol- mau's Hostility to all unusual, ex traordinary or new Items of expend iture; a Democratic) congress de sirous of making an economy rec ord; the Republican senate nlready committed to a canal aud locks project partly completed, Bouator Mitchell championing a boat rail way; the Influence of the Union Pacific railway in" congress against opening the Columbia river all these conspiring circumstances unite to make the probable chance of congressional aid almost a perfect impossibility. It would bo dlfll cult of procuring, all things favoring. As it is, there Id no use to waste a word on the subject. Before the Oregon legislature the mutter would bo very different. There Is a harmonious relation be tween the governor aud tho legisla ture on tho subject of a portage railway. Both are committed to It. It was recommended by him and passid ono house, nnd was defeated in the other not upon its merits, but as a mere by-play of polities. If tho name legislature were called to gether it could iu two weeks pro vide for a poitago railway at The Dalles. The people of Eastern Ore iron are entitled to It for the market ing of their present and their next harvest. A succession of had years, with failures of crops aud losses of1, stock, has left them in bad shape. Last year's big crop has only par tially put them on their feet. Good snow falls Indicate a big crop In 1802. Tho prosperity of that region absolutely demauds tho oponing of tho Columbia, aud it has been prov en that a portage railway will open It. If tho governor wishes to do something for that section he should call tho legislature together and de maud of it relief for Eisteru Ore gon. Now is the time to do It. It could not lefuso to comply. It would not dare to not act. With an election just ahead of It, it would not fall to act rightly. TOIl KHK1C COINAGE. Benulor Btcwnrt concluded his speech on tho presidents ohjectlona to free coinage In these werds: The question now Is, shall this money famine inaugurated by legis lation he continued? tihull the corner which tho money kings of tbo world hold on tho circulating medium he mnlutulned? Hholl prices continue to decline nnd money ad vance in value, or ahull wo retrace ourstepa, rehabilitate silver, endow It with all tho attributes It possessed before It was demonetized, place It alongside of gold, double the circula tion and credit, and relievo this gen eration of the evil tfl'ecls of a money fainlno? Let no politicians Jio deceived. l'he qupstlou of the restoration of silver cannot redt until It is settled. "Unsettled questions havo no pity for the repose of mankind." Polit ical parlies and prlvato gain count for nothing when weighed In the balance against the prosperity of the people. J appeal to the arlvocak-a of geld: Change your policy; do right; allow thecountiy t prosper; It will not Injure you You have gathered jour harvest by the enhanced value of money. Further contraction Is dan gerous. You will lose moro by the bankruptcy aud fullure of your debtors than you can extort from them by further Increaolug the value of money. I appeal to congresu to make every dollar equal to every other dollar by the only method possible fiee and unlimited coluuge of both of the precious metals. Treat gohl nnd silver alike, aud the value of all your coined dollars will boiquoljthe-uucolned metals, gold and silver, will bo equal to encli other at the ratio of 10 to 1. Give back the money of the constitution; restore to tbo people the heritage reserved tor thorn lu the mluea f gold aud silver they have discovered and developed. TIIK rOMOIIKSMONAL CO.VVEJTJrTN It Is characteristic of the Orir goulau to propoM that the second dlitrlct cuiigfffclnnftl convention fcbouid he held la that city and out side of the district. There is no reason why tho llrst convention In tho newly-crcalfd district should not be held within the boundaries of the district. Tho boundless nm- bltinu of Portland politicians tc dictate the politics of the state of course moves the Orcgonlau to pro pose such a thing, when It is tho universal custom all over our coun try to matte congressional nomina tions by separate conventions held for that purpose within the several districts. Tho llepubllcuns of this district will hardly ronseut to hold their convention at Portland. Somo other city In tho valley Is tho place THIS OltUUONIAN AND SOME OF 11IK ALLIANCES. They eeem to bo lighting together iu refusing t give the present rail road commission nuy credit for good work for the people. The Alllauces have tho excuse that they are In favor of govemmeut ownership, an excuse the Oregoniau canuot have because It opposed to that also. It copies any item from its exchanges that rellects on the commission. It never says a word In recognition of tho services of tbo commission In re ducing freight rates, correcting dis criminations, abolishing ovll prac tices or rendering decisions that hold the corporations responsible for neg ligence and thereby establishing tho safety of tho traveling public. It preteuds to favor tho commission system but lu reality it Is opposed to an elllcient commission or to a com mission of any service to tho public. Tho Oregoulan finds fault with tho new silver coins. Tho pooplo who are glad to get them do not. The supremo court of tho United Stales has judicially determined that ex-Senator Thayer, of Nebraska la an ass. Tho Dayton Harold says of him: "Tho friends of L. V. Ehlon, of Buttovlllo, Marion county, request him to be n candidate for county clerk of Marlou county, Mr. Ehlen Is a brother to Dr. W. H. Ehlcu, formerly of Dayton. If tho people of Marlon want an honest and up right man aud one who Iscapablo of performing the duties of clerk, we believe that Mr. Ehlen is the man." We know Mr. Ehlen to bo a good business man, aud n substantial German American farmer who will conscientiously attend to any duty Intrusted to him by tho people. Strength and Health.

Tho old United States lega tion there was such a poor structure that It was an object of ridicule among European residents, and ltl was through the energy of the lata Minister Swift that an appropria tion was mado for the erection of a new legation. The appropriation was not sufficient to complete the structure, and Mrs. Swift used $12-, 000 of her private funds to finish It. If tho minister had lived to com plete his term of office, thereby en abling tho family to enjoy the bene- (Its of tho improvements made, no claim for $12,000 would have been; made, but as tho minister died and' tho family were compelled to return home, Mrs. Swift thinks the money should ba refunded.
